In this exercise, you will explore Group Policies at both the local and domain level. You will first use the Local Group Policy Editor to explore some common Group Policy Settings. You will then apply and test some basic restrictions to your lab workstation.
In this part of the lab, we will explore how Group Policy works in an Active Directory environment.
First, we will need to promote your lab server to a Domain Controller. Leave the elevated PowerShell window open, but close all other open windows.
In the final part of this exercise, we will create an OU structure and apply GPOs to it.
